Brett Cannon wrote in a comment (msg106498) on another issue: """ The stated long-term goal of the stdlib is to minimize the C extension modules to only those that have to be written in C (modules can still have performance enhancing extension back-ends). Since datetime does not meet that requirement it's not a matter of "if" but "when" datetime will get a pure Python version and use the extension code only for performance. """ I'll keep this open for a while to give Brett and others a chance to respond to opposition. ---------- nosy: +brett.cannon priority: normal -> low type: behavior -> feature request _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7989> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
